    Pain

    Hi doctor, As I have mentioned before, I have fluid in my ears. Still have not seen an ENT yet because you cannot see one without a doctor referring you, which mine hasn't yet. Today I have had some pain. I want to say that it is sinus pain, but it feels more like in my cheeks. It just...

    What Should I Do? Should I Agree to Having Put Tubes In My Ears?

    So I went back to the doctor's today, partly because I am flying and I need diazepam for the flight and also because I wanted a new nasal spray. He looked in my ears again and though he said he couldn't see fluid in one (ironically the worst ear) he said he could still see bubbles in the other...

    Flying

    Hi doctor, I just wanted to ask you whether (in your opinion) I would be okay to fly. I went to my doctor (bearing in mind he is a GP and not a specialist) and he said it was okay. However, I am unsure and wanted to ask your opinion. He still has not referred me to a specialist yet as he hopes...

    Fluid Causing Tinnitus

    Hi Doctor, I have had T (tinnitus) for about two and a half months now. I noticed it after a cold. The first two times I went to the doctor they said my ears "did not look right" and "mucus-y". The third time a doctor said he could see fluid, but by that point I could hear it going round my...

    Can TMJ Cause Fluid Behind the Ears?

    The reason I ask this is that last night I was woken up because my top teeth clicked down on my bottom ones. I was half asleep and I don't know whether it just happened - just because, or whether I was dreaming, but I wanted to ask. I know I have fluid in my ears because the doctors have seen...

    Tinnitus Loud Last Night

    Last night I woke up some time after 2:00 a.m. - not because of T, just because I woke up. So I was turning round and trying to get back to sleep when I felt my ear go "deaf" and loud T start i.e. fleeting T. I know this is nothing to worry about so I stayed where I was and waited for it go...

    Time and Hope

    So I went to the doctor's again. This time I got a different one and I LOVED him! He was the best doctor I have seen: he didn't try to rush me out of the office, he let me ask all the questions I wanted, and he explained how processes in my ears worked. He was by far the best doctor I have...

    Will Fluid in the Ear Go Away by Itself?

    So these past few nights I have been sleeping, and I turn over on my other side and I can hear this swooshing noise in my ear. I listened and I realised I could hear fluid in my ear. It sounded like water moving around - if any of you have ever tried to soften hard wax, it's like that sound...

    What Is Wrong With My Ears?

    I am going mad trying to understand the problem with my ears. Aside from T, I also have pain in my ears that comes and goes, pressure headaches (I believe this is what they are as the pain is strong above my nose and between my eyes) which have caused nosebleeds, a crackling sound when I...

    So Sick Of Tinnitus!

    I have been coping relatively well, though it is hard for me not to think about my T. When I am in my room and nothing is on I can hear the ringing. I think it is mainly in my left ear, though sometimes I get noises in my right one too. I have had some positive signs too: the noise has gone...

    Advice Needed - Problem with a Friend

    This has nothing to do with T, but this problem has been bugging me for a few years now and I still have not resolved it. Since people have been so good about T advice, I wonder if anyone can help me with this. I was best friends with a girl - I had known her since we were little kids. We...

    Went to the Doctors...

    ...and it was actually reassuring. She took a look in my ears and said that she could see that they didn't look "normal" and in fact they looked mucus-y. She said that unfortunately it could take time - as in months - for the ears to clear up, and gave me another prescription for a nasal...
